on page 6). The chart below illustrates the routing differences with this setting ON or OFF .
Unverified Area Routing: OFF (factory default) Unverified Area Routing: ON
Decision:
Why choose
ON or OFF ?The driver wishes to naviga te manually by using the
navigation map and choosing the streets that lead to the
destination. The driver understands that unverified
roads may not be accurate, and can contain errors in
location, naming, and address range. The driver chooses to let the navigation system suggest
possible routing. The driver understands that in some
cases, guidance may not be appropriate. Unverified
roads may not be accurate, and can contain errors in
location, naming, and address range.
What you will
see...
A blue dotted vector line is displayed on the map that
continually points to your destination. The driver
should stop and then use the
map to select streets that
lead to the destination. A blue-pink dashed route line highlights suggested
unverified streets on the map while traveling to your
destination. This is in sharp
contrast to the normal blue
route line displayed in verified areas.

System SetupAfter you have traveled approximately
1/2 mile away from a mapped road, the
system will display a series of white
dots on the map screen to show the path
you have traveled. This is provided so
you can follow the dots to backtrack to
the mapped road you originally left.
Tracking continues until you reach a
mapped road. See Off-road Tracking on
page 71.
Tracking is shown only in the 1/20, 1/8,
1/4, and 1/2 mile scales. Rotate the
Interface Dial knob to change the
scale if necessary.
NOTE:
To clear existing dots, turn this feature
OFF and exit SETUP. To re-enable this
feature, return to SETUP and turn it on
again.
Correct Vehicle PositionThe system relies on satellites for
positioning information. Buildings,
tunnels, and other objects can block or
reflect these signals, requiring the
system to use “dead reckoning” to
determine your loca tion and direction.
This can sometimes lead to small errors
in positioning, such as showing you on
an adjacent street.
NOTE:
Using this function to adjust vehicle
position is not recommended. When the
system acquires a GPS signal, it will
automatically place the vehicle in the
correct location.
If you choose to do this, follow these
steps: 1. Stop the vehicle.
2. Select
Correct Vehicle Position ,
and the system will display the
Correct vehicle position screen.
3. Use the Interface Dial to move the
vehicle position arrowhead to the
